Improve Your Open Source Project Adoption by Catering to Integrators

In the software ecology, a special type of evangelist works with organizations that are open to incorporating open source into their technology infrastructure. These ???integrators??? (sometimes called value-added resellers or just computer consultants) can encourage a business to adopt software because the integrator is a trusted outside party without a sales agenda. If you capture the integrators and keep them interested and dedicated, the growth of your project is guaranteed.
